Hello, I was wondering about this problem I have been having. I do run antoher server but I shut it down while I was trying to use this one! I can go to http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1 but when I try to visit my IP address I can't get it. Sometime's I manage to get the little X over the image(default dir) but others I don't get anyhting. Also after I try that sometimes it won't let me back into localhsot or the other one. What is wrong, it works becuase I am currently running a server but when I use this server I can't?

I was also wondering what ports should be open in my router? I have the basic's becuase I have run the basic apache, mysql server but I need to know what thers need to be done!

Hi,

first of all pls clear your Browsercache.Did you restart after you change the DocumentRoot?

Ports that need do be open:

80 Apache443 Apache-SSL20/21 FTP

Thats all...

So longKriS

Okay yes I have restarted the server after changing the dcument root. I never thought about the browercache tho thanks I'll try that.

As for the port I have all of them open! But when I into the...erm cant think of what it is called(it tells you what is online/offline) most things that are offline are actually online. I knew MySQL used port 3306 so i open that and refreshed the page and it showed it as online. I will make a list of things tha are offline and see in anyone can help me:)
